Martha Argerich live in Rome

Experience Martha Argerich live on March 19th

Martha Argerich will perform at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome, Italy on March 19, 2027. Argerich is internationally renowned for her intensely passionate and virtuosic piano playing. Her style is characterized by a powerful technique, rhythmic drive, and a distinctive, often impulsive approach to interpretation, particularly within the Romantic repertoire. She is celebrated for her interpretations of composers like Rachmaninoff, Chopin, and Liszt, but also embraces contemporary works.

The Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia is one of the oldest musical institutions in the world. Founded in Rome in 1585 by Pope Sixtus V as a society dedicated to music, it initially focused on promoting sacred music within the Catholic Church. Over centuries, its scope broadened to encompass all genres of music and became a significant center for musical education and performance. In 1895 it was officially recognized as a higher institute for musical studies. The Accademia maintains a concert hall – the Aula Magna – known for its exceptional acoustics and historical significance. It continues to operate as both a conservatory and a cultural institution dedicated to the advancement of music. The institution has hosted performances by many prominent musicians throughout its history.
